About this Gig
Granting equity to an advisor is a sophisticated legal process. You cannot simply hand over shares; you need a legally compliant Equity Grant Agreement that protects your companys valuation, complies with corporate governance, and details the exact terms of the stock or options.
I am Mark Stuart Anderson, a licensed U.S. attorney (Bar No. #007073). I specialize in corporate cap table management and drafting highly detailed Equity Grant Agreements for startups.
I can draft agreements for:
- Non-Qualified Stock Options (NSOs)
- Restricted Stock Awards (RSAs)
- Phantom Stock or Profit Interest Units (for LLCs)
Every custom draft ensures:
- Clear grant dates and exercise prices
- Incorporation of your existing Stock Plan (if applicable)
- Transfer restrictions (Right of First Refusal)
- Repurchase rights for unvested shares
Don't let DIY legal templates ruin your next funding round. Ensure your equity grants are drafted by a professional U.S. corporate attorney. Message me today with your requirements!

FAQ
Should I grant Restricted Stock or Options to my advisor?
It depends on your company's stage and valuation. I can draft agreements for either structure based on your specific business strategy.
Do I need a corporate resolution to grant equity?
Yes, equity grants typically require approval from your Board of Directors. The Premium package includes a drafted Board Consent Resolution.
What happens to the equity if the advisor leaves?
The agreement will include repurchase rights and vesting terms, allowing you to reclaim unvested shares if the relationship ends.
Does this include a 409A valuation?
No, a 409A valuation must be performed by a financial firm/CPA. I provide the legal contracts required to execute the grant once your price is set.
Is this service suitable for an LLC?
Yes, LLC equity works differently than C-Corps (often using Profit Interest Units). I can draft custom grant agreements tailored specifically to your LLC.
